Mapping the Territory: Exploring People and Nature, 1700-1830

Historisches Institut der Universität Bern, SNF-Forschungsprojekt "Kulturen der Naturforschung"
Organisation: Simona Boscani Leoni / Sarah Baumgartner / Meike Knittel

Hallerstrasse 6, Bern
21.09.2017 - 23.09.2017

This conference aims to analyse the exploration and "invention" of territories in a comparative perspective. Following the findings of historians emphasising the social and cultural practices around early modern natural history the focus will be on collecting and exchanging, measuring and classifying information on territories of different scope. Thus, we are interested in discussing how various interests and means enabled the production of new forms of knowledge.

Interessierte sollten sich bis 11.09.2017 anmelden per Mail an: meike.knittel[at]hist.unibe.ch
